Twitter is a bunch of spam. And folks with websites are using twitter to link to own websites. Also seeing YouTube partners tweet and linking to own youtube partner sites -- can't understand why google is allowing this to happen --- this is clearly artificially increasing video views and partners make money off of views w/ google adsense.

Google.com/twitter ?

More likely twitter.google.com since that is how they usually do it. That is, if they even do create it as a separate sub-type of search, which I am not sure is a good idea. Just not sure.

Showing some random feed of Tweets is a Microsoft move and I some how doubt Google will make such a pointless function.
If I were to guess, I would say you will only see Tweets when they are relevant, and where they would make sense depending on there corresponding relevance to the search term. Meaning, sometimes they will be on top, some times else where on the page. But you can bet they will not clutter the page with useless links and will almost always be a useful and welcome addition to the front page.

These merges and sharing is going to bring all of this so much closer. Social media and search, personal profiles and a basic virtual profile that can walk and purchase things online reach a higher education through courses and online forums and boards. This will be a great new age of interwebs indeed.
Have you taken a look at Bing's Twitter? Nothing but a hot mess of chaos. I expect Google to integrate tweets much better, possibly a side column that you can choose to see or not. Score again Google!

I think Bing's search deal included Twitter, not just FB. So Google's news isn't earth shattering, and the timing of it very much seems like and "oh yeah? well...." statement. Take 2, Google!

Either of those 2 announcements aren't really Earth shattering... Twitter was open API, it shouldn't of taken this long.

I wouldn't say they are going to do the 'same exact thing'. Bing's version looks pretty weak and 'thrown together' whereas Google's blog post makes their integration sound useful and well thought out. We shall see what transpires in the coming weeks...

That's a great insight. Ding Bing for actually having a product live, but give Google props for something that doesn't exist.

Ummm I don't get it... Tweets will feature among website results? What about all the SEO we go through to get to the 1st page - to be knocked off by random Twitterings?

How relevant are the search results going to be? Not looking forward to slogging through random tweets to find information? Are the tweets going to be integrated into all results or filterable?

I hope Google will clearly partition tweets from other types of search results ... for most of my Google searches, I'm looking for more than 140 characters' worth of information.
Very interesting post, I had commented it in my blog.

So how does this work exactly? I'm guessing it hasn't taken effect yet?

I'm interested to know how this will work with the spaces between words. A lot of hashtags and Twitter handles don't have space in between key words words- do you think this is a detriment to key word optimization or will it not make a difference?
Thoughts?

I guess I'm confused. Hasn't GOOG been indexing tweets for a while? Does this new deal mean that Google's going to speed the process from tweet to search result and prioritize them somehow?

Congrats to Twitter! Let's hope that somehow this deal will improve Twitter's general reliability (HINT) but does this mean that fake garbage like "RIP Kanye West" will be top SERPs on Google?

Excellent news. I was wondering how long it will take for google to close this deal. I guess it also rests the twitter revenue model debate. At least for a while

I must say that i've been using webmynd features of showing contextual tweets on google searches for a while now, and before that used a custom greasemonkey userscript in FF. The ability to cross-reference results between the two in the same browser tab is priceless. Twitter is definitely stepping aside of an advertising based model with this move, and good for them.
